Just took delivery of a pre-owned F57 S Convertible, and getting familiarized with the foibles of the Gen3 cars.
I have had an R50 hatch, and my daily driver has been a 2009 R56 that has been a wonderful car for 11 years. Had to get a newer ICE with manual shifting before the BMW makeover is complete and those items are gone with the wind.
Looking forward to doing whatever is needed to keep this baby on the road.
No pictures yet, by dint of too much snow on the ground, but updates will come in the Spring.
Happy Motoring.

 

Welcome ! Did you keep the R56 or trade it. All three would be a nice stable !

 

I still have the R56, but planning to let it go for the Springtime. Too few parking spaces, alas.
it will probably stay in the neighborhood, and I will help the new owner work on her.
